    First of all, I love Edmonds. Although this restaurant is not in the center of Edmonds, it's in a close enough proximity. There is limited parking available. I came with a group of friends on a Friday evening, which was pretty busy. We got a table on the patio which was lovely. The server was friendly and accommodating. I appreciated and enjoyed the ambiance. Now to the important stuff: FOOD!! I was pretty impressed by the quality. I enjoyed everything we ordered. It appears they have a rotating menu. On this day there was a street corn pizza, which was superb. I wanted 2 more of those... I immediately knew that I wanted Rigatoni for the main dish. Although it was delicious and we were scraping out the sauce out of the bowl as much as possible, the only downer was tough, overcooked sausage. But the flavors were divine. The beet salad came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. The dessert was not memorable. Overall, I would come back here to try more dishes.

    Five Restaurant Bistro was a FIVE out of FIVE experience. We made a reservation for the outdoor area and was pleased with the cover above along with heaters scattered about to keep us warm. They know how to do bread here! The baked goat cheese and pistachio served with crostini were amazing. Baked perfectly and such a well rounded combination of flavors. Their pizza dough also so so good! I had the Italian sausage pizza and absolutely devoured it! Dashed their homemade chili oil on top?! Perfect. Finally got dessert the pear bread topped with vanilla ice cream. Another very well made bread! The bread had a crispiness to the edges but was warm and nice the deeper you dug into the dish. Attentive service and overall such nice vibes and flavors. I'll have to be back to try more of the menu.

    Always love coming to Five! The aesthetic is so cool, inside and out there is beautiful decor, plants, ambient lighting, and good vibes. The service is always great, every server is attentive and knowledgable - Cam was great! And the food never disappoints! There are options for those of us with food intolerances, which I appreciate (gluten/dairy/meat free). The salmon was perfectly tender and flaky, the beet salad was so flavorful and surprising, and the dessert was just divine!! And always, compliments to the bartender :)

    Everything about our meal at FIVE last weekend was perfection. We went to celebrate my husband's birthday and recent promotion at work. Our party consisted of four adults and two kids. We made a reservation a few weeks in advance, and were enthusiastically greeted when we got there. Within a minute, James introduced himself as our server. I could tell immediately that he would roll with the punches when it came to tolerating my elderly father's cringeworthy jokes. James went over the specials and gave guidance in regards to the cocktails and appetizers. We ordered Pistachio crusted goat cheese with tapenade and pita, and Tomato Basil bruschetta with crostini to start. While not huge, it was enough for each adult to have a try and both were delicious. The bruschetta was garlicky and fresh while the goat cheese was unique and flavorful. James graciously brought out more crostini as well. Between us, we ordered two Chicken Piccatas, one Carne Asada, one Pickle Pizza (specials) and kid's cheese pizza. Everything was excellent. The chicken piccata was perfectly fried with a delicate sauce. This is one of my favorite dishes, and while I highly prefer it to be served with pasta instead of potatoes, the potatoes were nicely done, and there was a generous portion. Loved the broccolini. My husband said his Carne Asada was also very tender and tasty. He really enjoyed it. Dad got the pickle pizza which seemed like an unusual choice, but he really enjoyed it. He gave me a taste as well, my first time experiencing pickle pizza, and let me tell you, it's delicious. I love that they have a kids menu with the basics and the price is extremely reasonable at $5. That's almost unheard of nowadays. Thank you, FIVE bistro for having this menu, especially for families like mine where the kids aren't always hungry or eager to try something new. Often times, the kids menu will make or break whether we go to a particular restaurant or not. A nice surprise was that my husband was brought a large dessert that was complimentary for his birthday. It was some deep fried cinnamon and sugar covered doughy balls, similar to big puffy donut holes, with some vanilla ice cream. It was a very nice touch. He loved it. The kids had the brownie and a scoop of ice cream and both were gone in seconds. The gentleman who appeared to be the manager standing at the host stand was funny, kind, and just really personable. He made the whole experience even better. We arrived at 5:30 pm before it really got poppin', but by 6:30, every table was full so plan accordingly. 100% recommend giving this place a try. It was absolutely fantastic.

    Went here for Christmas Eve dinner, it was absolutely delicious. We all cleared our plates completely and talked about the meal for the next 2 days. Ambiance was amazing and service was very nice. 5/5 recommend.

    Wonderful way to treat ourselves at the end of a busy week sitting at the bar enjoying a mixed berry crisp, delicious cup of coffee, and being pampered by an attentive waitress. Yum!!!

    Went here at around 5 on Thursday and it was fairly busy, especially the outside area in the back which is so cute. The waiters were very nice and friendly. I think the food was alright, I don't think it's anything special. Should also note the bathrooms were very dark. I wouldn't go back BECAUSE of their 3% surcharge that isn't even tip!! It's written tiny on the menu and I appreciate more clear transparency. Margherita - 6.5/10 : the crust wasn't quite right for us, wasn't soggy but wasn't like good level of crunch. They added Parmesan on top and I'm not sure if I like that either bc it's a little over powering. I liked how there was a lot of basil tho and that it's shredded, nice touch. Sauce wasn't very even, every bite was very differing. Linguini - 6/10: it is quite creamy and thick. The linguini and sauce didn't really have much seafood flavor on their own, wasn't well mixed together. Just tasted like seafood was thrown on top. Had a lot of different flavors but not sure it blended well, some seafood pieces were good but some were very not good.

    Chicken piccata. Lemon butter sauce with capers and parsley. Mashed potatoes and broccolini on the side. Scrumptious.

    Great food, great service, and pretty consistent. Simple menu and every choice is a good one.

    Baked Goat Cheese & Crostini, Ginger Grapefruit Cocktail

    What a lovely Thursday evening at Five Bistro! We had a reservation at 6pm to celebrate a birthday. A few members of our group arrived early around 5:30pm and leisurely enjoyed drinks and appetizers at the bar. The bartender even gave us a glimpse into next month's special drink-- featuring grapefruit, ginger, and tequila! We enjoyed the baked goat cheese with crostinis, and especially liked the olive tapenade it came with. Order extra crostini to maximize goat cheese use! Around 5:50pm, we were seated at our table on the outdoor patio where we stayed warm by the tabletop fire. For dinner, we ordered 3 large pizzas (Pepperoni, Italian Sausage, & Kale) and a large Caesar salad to share between our group of 4 people. Everything was delicious, especially with the chili oil on our pizza crusts. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and Five continues to be an Edmonds favorite!

    Five Restaurant Bistro is my go-to for outdoor dining. I like how its enclosed but still has plenty of fresh hair. Whether rain or sun, summer or winter they've had their patio consistently open and quite comfortable. Once during a chilly month when it was slow they allowed me to sit at one of their firepit tables and that was awesome! I am addicted to their pizzas. The small is too small for an entree but could make for a good appetizer. Their large is very filling, but I never find it too much food. I like how soft the crust is with just a little salt to make it delectable. It never seems too greasy and is always a delight. Their cocktails are also always on point. There's a wide variety of different types from spirit forward to light and refreshing. I really like that they typically have a special cocktail as well each month. It adds to the variety. The service has always been solid. Some of the servers are very enthusiastic and charming while others are more politely professional. This is not a fast restaurant. I've never been out of here less than 90 minutes, but I love it for visiting with friends. Because the flip side is I never feel rushed either!

    Excellent service, drinks, and food. Will be back for sure. The calamari was great as well, so much flavor.

    My husband and I tried Fire & the Feast for a date night for the first time, and unfortunately, I…read moredon't think we'll be back. The food was fine, but the overall experience was disappointing. The restaurant was extremely loud and felt very chaotic. Given the menu prices, we didn't expect to be seated so tightly between other groups that it felt like we were practically dining on top of each other. We could barely hear each other throughout the meal because another table was just inches away, and servers had to squeeze between the tables to take orders. When we were seated, I asked if we could move to an empty table nearby. The hostess explained that they typically don't seat two people at a four-top, which would have been understandable, except that one of the tables right next to us remained occupied by only two people for our entire meal. I wasn't looking for a special table--just a little more space to enjoy a conversation with my husband. We also had a reservation, so I expected the seating experience to be a bit more thoughtful. The food was perfectly fine, but the atmosphere and seating arrangement made it difficult to enjoy our date night. Overall, it felt like an overpromise-and-underdeliver experience, especially for the price point.

    I returned to Fire and the Feast with some out of town guests. Service was better; however, the…read moreserver Brady that I requested, was not there. The biggest problem was the focaccia appetizer and it was embarrassing! Focaccia is typically a nice thick slice of bread with spices on top. Not Fire and the Feast focaccia! It looked like wet Melba toast. Maybe a 1/4 thick with no spices on top. Why would you put something like that on a menu, let alone on a table for people to eat? I have had a service issue the last time I was there and only returned to get Brady to serve us. I do not see myself returning to the Fire and the Feast after a second disappointment of the worst focaccia appetizer! I am not tempting strike 3. Here is what Google says about Focaccia: Focaccia is a soft, flat Italian bread known for its dimpled surface, chewy texture, and rich olive oil flavor, often topped with herbs, salt, and other ingredients like vegetables or cheese. I suggest you either share this with your kitchen or take it off the menu.

Street parking only, but if you're open to a walk, downtown Edmonds tends to have ample parking around the area. When busy, they do provide a buzzer that has a short range, but opens up the opportunity of walking around slightly. Items can be a bit pricey, but they're also very filling. Large space, lots of chatter, and friendly service. Number Three Combo Club - we wanted waffles this time but also bacon and sausage. This was the variety pack we desired, though wish it came with both sausage and bacon! Opted for the bacon and it was thick, fatty, and delicious. One waffle cut into the four quadrants, ready to soak up syrup. Simple, but a classic. Chunky Monkey Pancakes - goofy perhaps, but another timeless classic combo of chocolate and bananas. Three chocolate chip pancakes, fluffy and ready to absorb the Nutella drizzle. Could have a few more chocolate chips embedded for a more balanced spread, but the chocolate drizzle helps spread flavor. Bananas for the healthy balance of course.

    Hot Dogs in Cars, and Managers Named "Robert" : A Hate Story…read more I have been a regular patron of The Rusty Pelican since I moved to Washington, just shy of 5 years ago. I take visiting loved ones and friends here, and I constantly extol the service and food to anyone who needs a recommendation for a breakfast spot in Edmonds. NEVER. EVER. AGAIN. The manager, Robert, showed sickening behavior. My partner and I were having breakfast out in front, when we noticed that a fellow patron had left their dog in the car on the sidewalk in front of our table. It was 60 degrees out, and completely sunny. The windows were barely cracked, and the dog was panting and straining its neck towards the venting of the window. We called our waiter over, who was incredibly sympathetic and horrified. He went inside to find the customer. We waited a few minutes longer, and then asked a second server to follow up (they were equally horrified and sympathetic). The second server also did not return. My partner went inside to seek help. It was at this point that they encountered Robert. My partner came out a few minutes later and explained what was happening: he had been in the process of denigrating the employees feelings about the matter, telling them to stop bothering customers and (essentially) quit acting like babies. "This isn't Arizona!" he exclaimed. When my partner asked to speak with him and tell him the situation, he was horrendously rude and confrontational, escalating each polite rebuttal with an agitating escalation of rudeness and denigration. My partner calmly explained that in these conditions, a car's interior temperature can rise to above 80 degrees in well under 30 minutes, not including stifling humidity. These conditions can cause an animal to pass out and die within a similar timeframe. At this point, it had been well over 30 minutes since the patron had parked. During all of this, he refused to even address my partner or look them in the eyes. It was absolutely unacceptable, and ultimately embarrassing for a grown man in a PAID CUSTOMER SERVICE ORIENTED POSITION to treat anyone like that. To be clear: the entire staff were incredible. They came out to check on the dog a few times, and tried their best to confront the owner of the dog, but a certain manager was preventing them. They also apologized profusely, and showed a grace that is exemplary and frequently unseen in today's world. We learned several good lessons today: 1. We should have just called animal control right off the bat. The owner isn't going to learn their lesson without legal intervention, or lethal endings. Thankfully they left after about 40 minutes, and the dog seemed to be conscious. 2. I am never going to eat here again, as long as Robert is employed. He should be left in a hot car out front to teach him some perspective. I wouldn't call animal control for him though. 3. I am going to spend the rest of my days around Edmonds telling anyone who will listen this story. To Robert, if you read this: I hope nothing but bad things happen to you forever, and your behavior is inexcusable. You do not deserve to be employed. To anyone above Robert in a position of management or ownership: fire him. Quickly, and unceremoniously. Do it in front of the kind employees, as a treat. They had a familiar air of exasperation with Robert's behavior, telling me this is normal. And under no circumstances should it ever be. Shame on you Robert.

Straight to the point. No, How Are You Doing, No nothing. Just have you made up for your mind. lol I could tell she was miffed because we brought drinks over from the bar. There goes the larger bill, therefore a larger gratuity. I know from experience, that was always a pet peeve. You also never know the type of evening someone is having. I always try to extend a little grace in the long run. I'm sure a lot have enjoyed their Chicken Parmigiana. I'm not one of them, mainly for all of the beets and carrots. Yes, beets and carrots took out more than half of the plate. I counted four bowtie pasta. Not to mention the beets were hidden under all of the carrots. And that's fine, but let people know that you're getting beets and carrots with Chicken Parm entree. I think either the server or the menu said something about broccoli. I had two florettes. Dessert (cheesecake with blueberry sauce ) was amazing, but the serving size was sad. Call me Tom, short for Petty, but there was more Readi Whip than cheesecake. And the size. Oh, the size, it was so small. Speaking of small, I think they get 12 chicken Parmesan from one chicken breast. Extremely thin. I know darn well all of these rising costs are hitting everybody/business in their pocketbooks, but, just don't serve some things. With all this said, I will be back. Like I said initially, I know they make good food. Looking forward to trying a grinder, just won't get the chicken Parmesan with root vegetables. PS. I dinedthere a few nights ago and then I got this alert.
